Measurements don't surprise me......
Most of the giants are always going to be abnormal fish.
Think about it....if you're an alien fishing for big humans with cheeseburgers as bait, you're not going to win the tournament catching the 35 year old guy who might still go to the gym a few times a week and buys his cloths off the rack at the department store. You're going to win catching the obscenely huge slob who buys his cloths from some obscure website for abnormally large people.
Same goes for stripers......the really big ones will rarely have the same proportions as the overall sample size.
